Chapter 232: Generous Strokes
"Well, I want this cloth. Zhou Sining said arrogantly.
She calculated, one piece of cloth is equal to ten zhang, and one zhang is equal to ten feet, which means that a piece of cloth requires sixteen yuan and ten zhang of cloth.
She carried twelve zhang of cloth in her pocket to expire, which was enough.
"What, do you want a horse?" The salesman was surprised, and looked at Zhou Sining carefully again, thinking that he was blind, this woman in ordinary clothes would not be the family of any leader, or how could she be so generous, as soon as she made a move, it was a piece of cloth, you must know that now ordinary people buy cloth by the ruler, and there is really no one who buys by the horse, anyway, she has never seen it.
"Well, I've saved up for several years of cloth tickets, and at the end of the year, I'll change it with people, and I've saved a lot of money in recent years, I originally thought I just moved here, why do I have to have a new look, we can't afford anything else, and it's okay to change the bedding with a new face, but last night we were almost eaten by mosquitoes, and this morning I decided to buy a mosquito net first, the quilt can still be covered with the old point, without a mosquito net, my family can't sleep at night, and how to contribute to the country during the day. Zhou Sining knew that her generosity scared people, but the mosquitoes here were too fierce, and she couldn't help it.
"Hehe, that's the case, that's to buy a horse. The salesman didn't believe a word, so many workers came here, and I didn't see anyone who came to buy a mosquito net cloth because they couldn't stand being bitten by mosquitoes in the summer, but they made excuses, and she couldn't tell which leader this little daughter-in-law belonged to, so she hummed and agreed.
Anyway, she only cares about issuing invoices and collecting money, and she can't care about anything else.
Zhou Sining watched the salesman open the ticket with a few strokes, and she quickly took out the ticket and money in her pocket, and handed it to her when she counted enough.
"Comrade, these cloth tickets in your hand are about to expire, what a pity it is to expire, it just so happens that our supply and marketing cooperatives have a few good fabrics, or you can choose some more." The salesperson deliberately wanted to make friends with the family of a leader like Zhou Sining, and just glanced at the ticket in her hand, feeling that she must have guessed right.
It's not the leader's family, who has so many tickets, and most of them are about to expire, isn't this that the family can't spend all the tickets, and the result is expired.
"Yes, what other cloth, you can introduce me to it. "Zhou Sining was mainly in the bazaar in the first two years, buying homespun cloth, so I don't know much about the current market, and now someone has taken the initiative to introduce it, of course, he is very interested.
"You see, I'm our most popular woolen material, and this one makes a Lenin suit for the men in the family, and there's no one else. The salesman saw that she was interested, and quickly pulled out a small roll of very blue woolen material from a pile of fabric.
Zhou Sining touched it, I didn't like it very much, mainly because the family was full of workers, and this fabric was not bad.
The salesman knew that she didn't like her as soon as she saw her expression, rolled her eyes, and pulled out another roll of cloth, "And this, this is called khaki, there are few of us here, and it is popular in Shanghai, you see, this cloth is quite melon, and it is Taiwanese to make pants and clothes." And this corduroy, you have to look good when you make a dress. ”
Zhou Sining touched them one by one, and she didn't like the corduroy or anything, but the khaki cloth was okay.
"How do you sell this?"
"Oh, sister, you have a really good eye, our supply and marketing cooperative, this khaki is the rarest, and it is expensive, one foot and four cents, and ordinary people can't afford it. The salesman's eyes narrowed.
"Is that the color of that?" she said, an earthy yellow, a color that was a bit eye-catching.
"Yes, and two colors. The salesman looked down and rummaged through the cabinet below, "Well, there's a black one and a green one, but the green is not right, you see which color you like." ”
Zhou Sining looked at the green cloth with an improper color, and liked it at a glance, what kind of color is this, is this obviously a very beautiful dark green.
She grabbed the cloth in her hand at once.
"This color looks very dirty, so let's do this, you ......pull it for me" Zhou Sining calculated in his heart, this fabric less than one meter wide, he can make a pair of pants in about three feet, but Zhou Jiguo and Fu Lei are not enough to make pants, and their old men can't wear thin pants, so they have to add one on each side, in this way, the three people in the family need four meters of cloth to make three pants, that is, twelve feet, one zhang two, "You pull one zhang and two for me, and this flower cloth, you can pull eight feet for me." ”
Zhou Sining looked at the plain weave cloth with small red flowers on a white background below, there were no curtains and curtains at home, just buy some small flower cloth and go back to make it yourself.
"Hey, okay. The salesman happily opened the ticket, and then took a ruler and brushed it a few times to tear the cloth up.
Zhou Sining took the cloth and didn't leave immediately, the family had just moved in, and many things were missing, so I had to see what else the family needed.
The salesman saw that she was still in the house, so he introduced: "Our supply and marketing cooperatives just bought a few hot water bottles yesterday......"
"I have it at home, and I don't need that. Zhou Sining shook her head, "Do you have cotton here?" She just asked, basically before the end of the year, cotton is such a scarce stock, even if you have a cotton ticket, you can't buy it.
The salesman was stunned for a moment when she asked Cotton, and then a struggling look appeared on her face, but after a few seconds, she seemed to have made up her mind, and a smile was piled up on her face again.
"Sister, you really came to the right place today, we just bought a batch of goods yesterday, and there are really more than 100 catties of cotton in it, but our leader said that it will not be sold on the counter, for fear of causing the masses to rob, it will be bad. Her implicit meaning was that this batch of cotton was to be digested internally.
"Yes. Zhou Sining's eyes lit up when she heard her words, but she heard Fu Lei say that the winter here is colder than H City, and her own cotton jacket and quilt are not thick enough, if you can buy cotton, you will be really lucky, "Then thank you sister." She said and began to rummage through her pocket, "Oh, I didn't bring a cotton ticket, you wait, my home is not far away, I'll go home and pick it up immediately, eldest sister, you keep it for me, you must keep it for me, I'll be back soon." ”
Zhou Sining found that he didn't have a cotton ticket, so he immediately grabbed the cloth he had just pulled and ran home.
"Hey......" The salesman wanted to call someone in the back, but before she opened her mouth, there was no one in front of her, she looked at the figure running away, frowned, and was a little uncertain about her guess, whose daughter-in-law can pay so little attention to the image, in order to buy some cotton, run like a scud.
Zhou Sining didn't know that she almost didn't run away with the cotton she finally ran into this run, she ran home in a hurry, threw the cloth on the kang, took out all the tickets she had hidden, and then carried all the cotton tickets inside, and ran back like the wind.
